Visit Edward I’s fearsome ‘iron ring’ of North Wales fortresses whilst staying two nights at Ruthin Castle within the mediaeval castle walls which he had constructed in 1277 and where he walked the battlements and gardens. Ruthin Castle was scarred by many historic battles between the English & Welsh and in the Civil War after Charles I sold it in 1632. Explore the mediaeval dungeons, whipping pit and drowning pit that remain within the hotel grounds and drive to find the great castles at Conwy, Beaumaris, Harlech and Caernarfon plus others such as Flint, Rhuddlan and Denbigh. Ruthin Castle is also where Edward VII created “an outpost of London in the wilderness”, a particularly important place in British High Society, and where HRH Prince Charles stayed on his way to his Investiture as Prince of Wales.
